Transcendent experiences have been extensively written about, from a psychological perspective by Freud, William James, Maslow and others. However in recent years, advances in identifying a "self-transcendent" personality trait, a "God Gene" and some of the neurochemical brain activities which occur during transcendent states, have opened up a new depth of understanding about this inside dimension of transcendent phenomena. They also offer science's newest challenge to traditional religious experience and belief.

In this book transcendent experiences are described by those in a variety of arenas, including traditional religious practices, close encounters with death and other natural phenomena, creativity and the arts, competitive sports, romantic love, and other areas. Those interested in religion and science, as well many general readers, may come to recognize experiences of their own, which they may not have considered religious or transcendent. They may also find comfort from developing a stronger and deeper foundation for their religious beliefs.

Helena P. Blavatsky was a spiritual adept who appeared on the world scene during the second half of the 19th Century when intellectual, scientific and religious thinking had already crystallized into their separate camps. Her life, devoted to showing that all thought came from the same source and that science and religion were really one, drew violent resistance. She is credited with bringing together eastern and western esoteric teachings in the form of Theosophy in order to prepare the world for a New Age which is at mankind's threshold today. The fact that we speak so freely of such things as yoga and meditation today can be credited to her legacy which is largely forgotten. As with other spiritual adepts, her journey was fraught with personal struggles and attempts to slander her. Yet her monumental works, The Secret Doctrine and Isis Unveiled, live on to shape peoples' thinking in preparation for the New Age. This screenplay is an attempt to reinstate her as the Mother of the New Age.

1924. This text presents a course of 12 lessons intended to give the student a perfect knowledge of the Science of Motion. With this knowledge, he will be able to perfectly understand the ultimate, as well as the immediate cause of all manifestation of nature; he will take the first steps toward an understanding of the Theosophia; and will learn that without this knowledge, an understanding of nature in the abstract is impossible.

In the timeless time of eternity, does God have a pre-history? What was God "before" (so to speak) God became GOD? Was there some terrible mistake involving culpability? If so, how did this God of pre-history handle His mistake? Availing himself of certain currents found in Scripture and in classical Rabbinic sources, the author makes the case that God is a being with moral fault. The author argues that how God handled His mistake was the process which allowed God to become the celebrated: THE GREAT THE MIGHTY THE TERRIBLE GOD "who remains steadfast to his covenant and loving bond," [Nehemiah 9: 32] And it all started with Noah: " But Noah found grace/favor in the eyes of Hashem." [Genesis 6: 8]

11 lectures, various cities, January-May, 1909 (CW 109)These talks reveal a particular aspect of how humankind have been guided spiritually throughout history--by the life forces and astral bodies of the great initiates and avatars that were preserved, duplicated, and interwoven with the leading personalities of history. Steiner gives numerous examples of this process, but he says that such inspired people are rare today. Nevertheless, we have the possibility of elevating ourselves in the future to the point where we can receive into ourselves the "I-being" of the Christ, which is indeed our greatest goal--"not I but Christ in me."
